On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris. She reached into her change purse, emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man. Neither of them realized that this small generous act would change their lives.
Sarah didn’t realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the following morning. She and her husband, Bill Krejci, rushed to see if they could find Billy. The homeless man was not only in the same place, he also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had.
Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man. So on February 18th, he set up a special page to raise money for him. In just four days, Billy received over $85,000 and there seems to be no end yet.
That is not enough. Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets. And that’s not all—Thanks to the news report, he got together again with his older brother, Edwin Harris who he had been unable to find for 27 years.
All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thing—returning something that did not belong to him.
( ) 69. When did Sarah realize that she had also given Billy her diamond ring?
A. On February 9th, 2013 B. On February 10th, 2013
C. On February 18th, 2013 D. On February 22nd 2013
( ) 70. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Billy is living with a generous person. B. Billy has found his brother.
C. Billy bought a diamond ring. D. Billy appeared in the news report
( ) 71. The underlined word “That” in Paragraph 4 refers to(指代) “________”.
A. returning the ring B. setting up a page
C. living in the streets D. receiving money
( ) 72. What’s the best title of the passage ?
A. Generous Woman Changed Her Own Life
B. Kind Man Set Up Special Page
C. Homeless Man Returned Diamond Ring
D. Many People Donated Much Money

The human brain weighs about 1.4 kilograms, but it can hold much more information than most computers. However, there is another difference between humans and computers. Computers don’t forget information they are given, but humans often do. No one remembers everything, and luckily we don’t usually have to. But everyone can improve their memory if they want to. Here are some suggestions.
◆Try to use new information immediately. For example, if you meet someone who says “Hi! I’m Carlos,” don’t just say “Hello.” Repeat the person’s name. Say “_________”
◆Break a big number into smaller parts. For example, it’s hard to memorize (记忆) 109244153. But if you break it into three parts--109/244/153—it becomes easier.
◆Write out what you need to remember over and over again. This will help you keep it in mind longer, especially for memorizing formulas (公式) or facts.
◆Always review information. If you bring what you’ve learned back to your mind, they become easier to remember. For example, before you go to sleep, it’s a good idea to review the new things you learned that day.
◆Discuss with a friend. It is always easier to remember things through discussions. You can have a discussion about what’s right and what’s wrong, and it will lead to the right answer.
◆Never tell yourself that you have a bad memory. You can always do something to help improve your memory. And everyone’s memory gets better if they use it often enough.
All of the suggestions are helpful. If you follow them, you are certain to improve your memory.
( ) 73. How many suggestions are mentioned in the passage?
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
( ) 74. Which should be put in the blank (空格) in Paragraph 2？
A. Hello, Carlos. B. How do you do?
C. Hello, I am Sophia. D. Glad to meet you!
( ) 75. What can help memorize a big number more easily according to the passage?
A. To store it in a computer. B. To break it into smaller parts.
C. To discuss it with a friend. D. To review it before you sleep.
( ) 76. What does the sentence "Never tell yourself that you have a bad memory” mean?
A. You should tell others about your bad memory.
B. You should believe in other people all the time.
C. You should ask others to improve their memory.
D. You should be confident in your memory ability.

At East China University of Science and Technology, students will get a coupon (优惠券) if they eat up their food. Students can collect coupons and exchange them for small gifts, such as books, magazines, mobile phone covers and hand warmers.
“It’s been such a surprise,” said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student at the university in Shanghai. “It has given us one more motivation to finish our food.”
The measure is part of a national “eat-up” campaign(行动) which is organized by students to deal with food waste on campuses(校园).
Why only on campuses, you might ask? Because according to a report by Xinhna News Agency, students waste twice as much food as the national average(平均).
The campaign on campus food waste is receiving attention across the country.
“The aim of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also encourage students to choose a more environment-friendly and healthy lifestyle,” said Tao Siliang, secretary of the Youth League Committee at Shanghai University.
But some school food is poorly prepared, so students do not like to finish it all. Some schools have taken notice of this and they are taking measures to improve it.
“I’m glad that we’ve reduced food waste since the ‘eat-up’ campaign began. But if we call on students to waste less food, we should also improve the service and food standard on campuses." said Tao.
( ) 77. From Paragraph l, we know that the students will get a coupon___________ .
A. when they eat school food B. after they exchange gifts
C. if they finish all their food D. if they collect the waste
( ) 78. The underlined word “motivation” in Paragraph 2 means ___________in Chinese.
A. 动力 B. 机会 C. 试验 D. 条件
( ) 79. The “eat-up” campaign is carried out on campuses because ________.
A. students get a good education B. schools offer small gifts
C. students waste too much food D. school food is more delicious
( ) 80. The purpose of the campaign is mainly to ________ .
A. improve the school food standard B. encourage a greener and healthier lifestyle
C. receive attention from the society D. further improve the service in universities
B) 请阅读下面短文。根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中，选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺、结构完整。（每小题2分）
Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. 81 There was no modern medicine, either.
Life today has brought new problems. 82 Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and polluted our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. 83 It’s bad to all living things in the world.
Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. 84 This kind of quilt is called smog（烟雾）.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away, they mustn’t blow dirty smoke into the air.
We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw it on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.
85 Every person must help to fight pollution.
A. Rules are not enough.
B. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt over a city.
C. One of the biggest is pollution.

I am not happy these days. Something disturbs me. My parents want me to study abroad. They think it easier for me to learn English there. In the foreign country, I can learn more and the things there can open my eyes and my mind. If I finish my schooling, I can easily find a job and make more money. Then I’ll have a good future.
But I don’t agree with my parents. I think I’m too young to look after myself. I don’t think it necessary to learn English in an English-speaking country. I can learn it hard in my school. Going abroad will cost my parents too much.
I really don’t know whether I should obey my parents or not. I need your advice.

t smoke or drink. But that’s not enough.
The following are some of the new rules: Tell the truth: Have you ever copied someone else’s work in an exam? Don’t do it again. That’s not what an honest student should do.
Be open to new ideas: Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Don’t look down upon new ideas. Everyone’s new ideas are important.
Protect yourself. If you have to go home late, you should take care of yourself and let your parents know.
Use the Internet carefully: The Internet can always be very useful for your studies. But some things aren’t good for kids. So try to look through those web pages that are good for you.

Nowadays the whole country is working hard to build the great “China’s Dream”. Everyone has his own dream. As a Chinese student who will leave junior middle school soon, I also have a dream. I will try my best to improve my grades so that I can enter the best senior high school in our city. If I keep on working hard, I’m sure I can go to one of the best university and find a good job. If I save enough money, I will travel around the world. I will do volunteer work for the charity at the same time. I think if I keep my dream and never give up, my dream will surely come true.
